Reel 2:
Segment 1 (silent + sound): Begins with footage inside a grocery store, with close-ups of product labels: Superior Chili Mac dinner, Kraft Macaroni and Cheese frozen dinner, Nescafe instant coffee jar with 10 cents off sticker, Nestea Instant tea jar with 50 cents off sticker, close-up of "Super" and "Jumbo" text on packing, Salvo power tablets, Dash jumbo size. KNTV reporter Bob Marsden then speaks to the camera from one of the aisles. "The State of California is taking an active part in support of truth in package legislation, at hearings which opened in Washington this week before a House committee. State consumer counsel, Helen Nelson, is in Washington to testify before the House committee concerning the strides this state has made towards the elimination of Madison Avenue hokum which may tend to deceive the unwary housewife. About a dozen bills are before the House Foreign & Interstate Commerce Committee, the foremost of which is S9-85, already passed by the Senate by a 72-9 margin. This particular bill would affect labeling of net quantities on labels of packages to allow the consumer to know just how much of a particular product he or she is purchasing; forbid cents off labeling or a certain reduction of price on a product as indicated on a label which has been affixed at the point of manufacture; forbid exaggerated phrases which lead the consumer to believe a product is more than it really is; to provide for a definition of a serving, which is a common term used in packaging of instant products; and establish a means of establishing fair weight and size standards for some products. Before leaving for Washington, Mrs. Nelson, who favors such legislation, said that if this bill is passed, another hurdle will have been overcome toward improving consumer buying rights. Bob Marsden, KNTV News."
Segment 2 (sound): Man with dark, curly hair and thin mustache is interviewed. "This reason was to dramatize (?) the parent [peasant?] of the region of Guadalupe to a farmworker which is Dia del Campesino, which it was Juan Diego, and we want to pay respects to her in this march. The second reason was to show unity between our National Farmworkers Association and United Farmworkers Association which we working very close together throughout the state on our problems." Reporter: "What time does the march begin? It starts out in East San Jose - where does it go and what time does it start?" "It starts at one o'clock at Our Lady of Guadalupe and will end at Civic Auditorium, with the program that NFW.." [cut off]
Reel 3:
Segment 1 (silent): Elementary school students in classroom, taking part in different activities with adults present, including story time, painting, listening to audio exercises with headphones.
Segment 2 (silent + sound): First part appears to be a retirement ceremony for a U.S. Navy officer at a formal gathering on a lawn outside a naval building. Women dressed in white gloves and cocktail dresses file onto the lawn with children, and sit in folding chairs that are being assembled by sailors. Two older officers emerge and one makes a speech while the other stands facing the podium as the audience smiles. The second part is an interview with one of the men, now in civilian clothing, surrounded by a large family. Reporter Dennis Rodderer asks, "How do you feel to be out of the Navy?" "It's great, after 30 years and 27 days, I've been waiting for this all my life." Reporter: "You sound like you've been counting every day of it, you were so precise there." "Well, really, I haven't been counting every day, but when it comes it comes, and I've put my time in the service nd I'm ready to start on something a little more American. Not American - a little more family American is what I meant." "What are you going to do now that you're out of the Navy?" "We're going to open our own franchise business, a Mr. Donut franchise, and we hope to put everyone into the act."
Reel 4 (sound): Interview with hospital administrator inside hospital. "We have implemented emergency plans for facilities here at Santa Clara, and these extend primarily in terms of insuring that we can continue to provide the people of this community with essential services. By essential services we mean such things as emergency room operation, emergency surgery as dictated by the attending physician in each case, and also particularly in this area where it is a young community, we are particularly concerned about delivery room, nursery, care of infants and pediatrics. These are the areas in which we're concentrating our efforts to provide for essential services." Reporter: "Has the hospital made any plans to hire new nurses to care for the ones -- the openings made by the ones who've gone?" "We are really employing any effort we can to maintain these essential services. In the beginning of course there is a nursing shortage, so the supply of nurses for employment is very limited as you might know. In terms of emergency planning, we will have to curtail some services in order to maintain essential ones -- specifically, for example, we are cancelling elective surgery at this hospital. Elective surgery meaning those where there is a choice by the patients to when the surgery might be performed. Our physicians are making the individual decision with each patient as to discharging any patient who can be safely cared for at home in order to reduce the load so that these essential services can be maintained. We are very hopeful in this regard that the California Nurses Association will provide help in taking care of emergencies in the community.."
